Hey Tuigi, you might have these links, but I'll post em up just in case!!

I started off with Ms. Julie Dillon's tutorials, which are great and easy to understand.
http://www.howtodrawmanga.com/tutorial/fbodymain.html

The tutorials at Polykarbon are also excellent.
http://www.polykarbon.com/tutorials/index.htm

However, I've found that Andrew Loomis's book (Figure Drawing for all its Worth) helped me the most.
http://www.fineart.sk/page_01.htm

It's a bit of a long read, you can skim parts, but his diagrams and text on the proportions are amazingly easy to understand.

Tuigi - books like Grey's Anatomy are helpful, you can get 'em out of the library. Otherwise, pictures in magazines are useful, and there are loads of sites on the net with reference picture resources which you can troll through. I mean, even trying Google's image search is often helpful for me. I also do a lot of drawing from life (get your mates to pose) and drawing from photos and magazines... I figure it doesn't matter what they're wearing/how they're sitting/what age/sex/height they are/or whether they're good looking... it's all good practice, after all...

Little hint,
Check out the main page of the loomis link for more great references and resources on anatomie.

Here is the Link.

And keep in mind that you can find alot of "reference pictures" on the internet .
